Dan Le Batard has never been afraid to address what he perceives as injustice in the UFC. Even when he was with ESPN, the network who is the broadcast partner of the UFC, Le Batard took UFC president Dana White to task for underpaying his fighters.
Le Batard is no longer with ESPN, but it seems as if he still has his eye on the sport because he had some thoughts on UFC Vegas 34 — specifically the aftermath of the Jared Cannonier vs. Kelvin Gastelum matchup.
“You see another UFC fighter after a fight just announced, when the microphone was in front of him, and he didn’t even say it with bitterness, ‘I’m broke,’” Le Batard said, recalling Cannonier’s post-fight interview with UFC commentator Daniel Cormier.
